6. Dispute Resolution

6.1 General: If a dispute arises between you and HomeSecurityComparison, our goal is to provide you with a neutral and cost effective means of resolving the dispute quickly. Accordingly, you and HomeSecurityComparison agree that we will resolve any claim or controversy at law or equity that arises out of this Agreement or our services (a “Claim”) in accordance with one of the subsections below or as we and you otherwise agree in writing. Before resorting to these alternatives, we strongly encourage you to first contact us directly to seek a resolution. We will consider reasonable requests to resolve the dispute through alternative dispute resolution procedures, such as mediation or arbitration, as alternatives to litigation. Other than those matters listed in Section 6.2, you and HomeSecurityComparison agree to seek resolution of the dispute only through arbitration of that dispute in accordance with the terms of this Section 6, and not litigate any dispute in court. Arbitration means that the dispute will be resolved by a neutral arbitrator instead of in a court by a judge or jury.

6.2 Exclusions from Arbitration. YOU AND HomeSecurityComparison AGREE THAT ANY CLAIM FILED BY YOU OR BY HomeSecurityComparison IN SMALL CLAIMS COURT OR BY HomeSecurityComparison RELATED TO PROTECTION OF HomeSecurityComparison OR ANY HomeSecurityComparison LICENSOR’S INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY ARE NOT SUBJECT TO THE ARBITRATION TERMS CONTAINED IN THIS SECTION 6.

RIGHT TO OPT OUT OF BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER WITHIN 30 DAYS. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THE BINDING ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER IN THIS SECTION 6, YOU MUST NOTIFY HomeSecurityComparison IN WRITING WITHIN 30 DAYS OF THE DATE THAT YOU ACCEPT THIS AGREEMENT. YOUR WRITTEN NOTIFICATION MUST BE MAILED TO HomeSecurityComparison TERMS ADMINISTRATOR, 244 FIFTH AVE, SUITE 1628 NEW YORK, NY 10010

6.3 AND MUST INCLUDE: (1) YOUR NAME, (2) YOUR ADDRESS, (3) YOUR EMAIL AND (4) A CLEAR STATEMENT THAT YOU DO NOT WISH TO RESOLVE DISPUTES WITH HomeSecurityComparison THROUGH ARBITRATION.

6.4 Class Action Waiver. ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR AS A NAMED OR UNNAMED MEMBER IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, UNLESS BOTH YOU AND HomeSecurityComparison SPECIFICALLY AGREE TO DO SO IN WRITING FOLLOWING INITIATION OF THE ARBITRATION.

6.5 Initiation of Arbitration Proceeding/Selection of Arbitrator. If you or HomeSecurityComparison elect to resolve your dispute through arbitration, the party initiating the arbitration proceeding may initiate it with the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), www.adr.org, or JAMS www.jamsadr.com. The terms of this Section 6 govern in the event they conflict with the rules of the arbitration organization selected by the parties.

6.6 Arbitration Procedures. Because the Service concerns interstate commerce, the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) governs the arbitrability of all disputes. However, applicable federal or state law may also apply to the substance of any disputes. For claims of less than $75,000, the AAA’s Supplementary Procedures for Consumer-Related Disputes (“Supplementary Procedures”) shall apply including the schedule of arbitration fees set forth in Section C-8 of the Supplementary Procedures; for claims over $75,000, the AAA’s Commercial Arbitration Rules and relevant fee schedules for non-class action proceedings shall apply. The AAA rules are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879. Further, if your claims do not exceed $75,000 and you provided notice to and negotiated in good faith with HomeSecurityComparison as described above, if the arbitrator finds that you are the prevailing party in the arbitration, you will be entitled to recover reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as determined by the arbitrator, in addition to any rights to recover the same under controlling state or federal law afforded to HomeSecurityComparison or you. The arbitrator will make any award in writing but need not provide a statement of reasons unless requested by a party. Such award will be binding and final, except for any right of appeal provided by the FAA, and may be entered in any court having jurisdiction over the parties for purposes of enforcement.

6.7 Location of Arbitration. You or HomeSecurityComparison may initiate arbitration in either Orange County, California or the county in which you reside. In the event that you select the county of your residence, HomeSecurityComparison may transfer the arbitration to Orange County, California in the event that it agrees to pay any additional fees or costs you incur as a result of the change in location as determined by the arbitrator.

6.8 Severability. If any clause within this Section 6 (other than the Class Action Waiver clause of Section 6.4) is found to be illegal or unenforceable, that clause will be severed from this Section 6, and the remainder of this Section 6 will be given full force and effect. If the Class Action Waiver (Section 6.4) clause is found to be illegal or unenforceable, this entire Section 6 will be unenforceable, and the dispute will be decided by a court and you and HomeSecurityComparison each agree to waive in that instance, to the fullest extent allowed by law, any trial by jury.

6.9 Continuation. This Section 6 shall survive any termination of the Terms.

7. General Provisions

HomeSecurityComparison may also revise other policies, codes or rules at any time, and the new versions will be available on www.HomeSecurityComparison.net or in the Service. No amendment to the Terms or Privacy Policy shall apply to any dispute of which HomeSecurityComparison had actual notice before the date of the amendment.

7.1.4 To the extent the Terms or Privacy Policy conflict with any other HomeSecurityComparison terms, policy, rules or codes of conduct, the terms contained in these Terms and in the Privacy Policy shall govern.

7.2 Severability. You and HomeSecurityComparison agree that if any portion of these Terms or of the Privacy Policy is found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent jurisdiction, such portion shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective solely to the extent of such determination of invalidity or unenforceability without affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of the Terms, which shall continue to be in full force and effect.

7.6 No Waiver. The failure of HomeSecurityComparison to require or enforce strict performance by you of any provision of these Terms or the Privacy Policy or failure to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or relinquishment of HomeSecurityComparison’ right to assert or rely upon any such provision or right in that or any other instance. The express waiver by HomeSecurityComparison of any provision, condition, or requirement of these Terms or the Privacy Policy shall not constitute a waiver of any future obligation to comply with such provision, condition or requirement. Except as expressly and specifically set forth in these Terms, no representations, statements, consents, waivers, or other acts or omissions by HomeSecurityComparison shall be deemed a modification of these Terms nor legally binding, unless documented in physical writing, hand signed by you and a duly appointed officer of HomeSecurityComparison.

7.8 Equitable Remedies: You acknowledge that the rights granted and obligations made under these Terms to HomeSecurityComparison are of a unique and irreplaceable nature, the loss of which shall irreparably harm HomeSecurityComparison and which cannot be replaced by monetary damages alone so that HomeSecurityComparison shall be entitled to injunctive or other equitable relief (without the obligations of posting any bond or surety or proof of damages) in the event of any breach or anticipatory breach by you. You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief, or to enjoin or restrain the operation of the Service, exploitation of any advertising or other materials issued in connection therewith, or exploitation of the Service or any content or other material used or displayed through the Service and agree to limit your claims to claims for monetary damages, limited by Section 5.2 (if any).
